An Electronic Music Extravaganza   For the first program of 2005, the Washington Metropolitan Area Chapter of the Association for Recorded Sound Collections will present a listening session and performance of electronic music. Bryan Cornell will play recordings from uncharted, mind-expanding corners of the collections of the Library of Congress made on modular synthesizers from 1955-1970. Included in the selections will be recordings made on the RCA Mark II synthesizer for which Milton Babbit and others at the Columbia-Princeton Electronic Music Center regularly composed. We will also hear recordings of the synthesizers designed by DON BUCHLA and ROBERT MOOG. The program will also feature LIVE performances by three electronic artists.
